the organ of sight, rendering them perfectly natural to the eye, and producing a clear and distinct image of the object as in the natural healthy night, avoiding the g'in'mcring, wavering dizziness of the head, and other unpleasant sensations often experienced in the use of ordinary glasses, and enabling the wearer to prosecute minute and critical eve-labor, either by day or candle-light, with ease, comfort and satisfaction.

WHAT KEM11MOAMN THINK OF IT AIIKOAI. INFAMOUS.—Crawfordsvilie lias a
Republican city council of five majority. They have rendered them selves infamous by electing a Democratic city attorney. Why men professing sense or honesty should thus shamefully snub their party associates, we are unable to see. Wc trust our Crawfordsvilie friends will re member those recreant councilincu in the future and pay them for their rascality.—Lebanon Patriot.
A MEAN ACT.—The City Council of Crawfordsvilie is composed of five Republicans and one Democrat—yet, in one of their late sittings, they could not find a Republican in that city posessed of sufficient talent to fill the office of City Prosecutor, (at least their action would lead one to think so.) consequently they elect to that office one who was a sympathizer with rebels during the war, and is not much better still. We have read of Judas Iscariot betraying Christ of McClellan murdering our soldiers in the swamps of the Chickahominy the murder of Lincoln by Booth of a grandson stealing silver quarters from oil the eyes of his dead grandmother: of the apostacy of Andrew Johnson of infanticide, arson and rape but we never before knew a majority of Republican officials, elected by loyal Republican voters, so far forget duty, honor, and common dedency to their constituents as to elect a virulent Copperhead to office over the head of an honest, loyal llepublican. We should think these apostates to the common principles of right, would be ashamed to look in the face of those who placed them in the position they occupj Memorabilia.—Delphi Journal I
A CONTEST was had between the Republican- and Democrats at Crawfordsville y'^rol of the City Council, iio ntjpuulicans succeed-, ed, electing five out of six council-, men. But when the Council came to elect a City Attorney, they elected a Democrat, thus giving the best office to a man who opposed them, so that the Republicans think they have been sold cheap. The charity of that Council covers a multitude of sins to do so mean a trick as to sell out its friends, and they will doubtless reap the reward due to treachery such as theirs.—Benton Tribune.
A SUSPENSION of the party divisions among the people to elect publ officers, is a movement made in the interests of a good government, but wheu a party has elected its men for executive or legislative offices, and they go over to the other side, it is treachery. And when the Republican party has elected a majority of the City Council, and a portion coa-:of lesce with the Democratic minority to control legislation, they begin by cheating those who elected them, and their coalition does not admit of any explanation but by the motive of cor-, ruption.— Cincinnati Gazette. .... ......
Montgomery Comity and Ihi' «w Railroad.
Why is it that Montgonmery county is so lukewarm and careless in re-: gard to tbe Anderson & Crawfordsville Railroad Is it because her attention is engrossed by other enterpriscs that are deemed more im portant Montgomery has as much to gain by the building of the proposed line as any county through which it will pass, and it is high time she was waking up. If there lurks in the minds of any of her citizens a single doubt that the road will be built, at: least from Anderson to Lebanon, let it at once be dispelled for the people of Boone, Hamilton and Madison counties are engaged in the work with a zeal that assures us they mean business. If the Montgomery folks want the road extended from this place to Crawfordsvilie it is time they were saj'ing so. Lirect railroad communication
with Lebanon is to
them a "consummation most devoutly to be wished for"—a thing of too o-rave importance to be lightly thougt of.—Boone County Pioneer.
The grand exhibition of Postage Stamps recently held in one of the apartments of the Paris Mint, attracted great attention. The finest display was made by England with her 34 colonies, each one having a different desigh on the stamp. The United States ranked next.
Marl exists in North Carolina in immense quantities, and is the cheapest and best fertilizer in use.

Rosecrans, laying his hand on Mr. V.'s shoulder, said, 'lie don't look a bit like a traitor now does he Joe?' (meaning Col. McK. of his staff.)
